Teacher’s Application

Teacher’s Fund is a non-profit organization serving teachers from Carpinteria to the Santa Ynez Valley TK-12th grade. The 2026-2027 school year grant cycle opens on August 1, 2026 and closes on April 30, 2027. Please note we have transitioned our Application Process to Submittable.

TO APPLY: please go to: https://teachersfund.submittable.com/submit, create an account, and submit your request.

Please complete all fields of the grant request, and include your personal phone number so we may get in touch with you if necessary. We keep all information confidential and will only use it to contact you about your request.

IMPORTANT: Please note that while you can submit a request today, we won’t review it until mid-August 2026. Responses will be sent late August 2026. Once the 2026 school year begins, we review requests mid-month and respond by the end of the month.

GUIDELINES: Teachers may apply only once per grant cycle. Grant requests must not exceed $500. Please note we no longer accept requests for books.
